"Death, I've come to bargain,
Grant me your wisdom, open your hands to my questions, enlightened me while I walk through the void."
"That is not my purpose, child
for I am death, my wisdom is buried deep beneath the forgotten world, the void is not mine to conquer, I cannot shelter you from it
I am death, your guide to the underworld, not its ruler
The answer to your question is yours to discover."
"Then grant me one last request,
when we meet again, do not let my children witness my failure, but the path I chose to all the questions unanswered. "
"I shall do so, child
Surely you must know the price."
